As a small, family-owned and operated business, we have the opportunity to make choices that larger box stores can't. We're proud to say we never left value and service. We like being an independent, single-store specialty retailer, because if you call us, you don't get a call center, you get one of us. The management and staff are all paddlers from many disciplines, from whitewater kayaking to wilderness canoeists to sea kayakers to recreational paddlers.
Our values are people-focused: our staff love their work and love getting people into paddling. Some are more connected directly to the sales process, but everyone in the company contributes to our mission: get people on the water as beginners and to provide a pathway (if they so choose) toward more advanced skills. It’s all about you.
